Theme Essential Question:

Essential Questions:
How can you use dot plots, frequency tables, histograms and box plots to display data?

Standards:
C.6.SP.4
  • Students will summarize and describe distributions.
  • Students will display numerical data in plots on a number line including dot plots, histograms and box plots.

Objectives
  • Students will display data in dot plots and frequency tables.
  • Students will display data in histograms.
  • Students will solve problems involving data by using the strategy draw a diagram.
  • Students will display data in box plots.


Assessment
Product
  • Students will create a display data in a format appropriate for that data set as well as reading data from graphs generated by other students.

Key Question
  • How do you determine the appropriate format for a data set?
  • How can the data displayed be used to analyze data?
  • What visual tools are needed to make sense of problems and preserve in solving them?

Observable Behaviors
  • Students will display data graphically in a format appropriate for that data set.

Mathematical Practices
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in
solving them.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4. Model with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
7. Look for and make use of structure.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
